What typeof substances would make better permanent magnets, ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic.Justify your answer. |
| Answer» Solution : ferromagnetic SUBSTANCES MAKE BETTER permanent magents. This is because the metal ions of a ferromagnetic substance are grouped into SMALL regions called 'dmains'. Each domain acts as a tiny magnet. These DOMAINS are randomly oriented. when the substance is placedin a magnetic field, all the domings get oriented in the direaction of magneticfield and a strong magnetic field is produced . This ording of domains presists even when the external magnetic fieldsi removed. Hence, the ferromagnetic substance becomes a permanment magnet. | |

The value of K_c for the reaction 2A hArr B+ C is 2 xx 10^(-3). At a given time, the composition of reaction mixture is [A] = [B] = [C] = 3 xx 10^(-4) M. In which direction the reaction will proceed ? |
|
Answer» Solution :`{:("Reaction :",2A HARR, B+, C),("Concentration at t TIME :",3xx10^(-4), 3xx10^(-4), 3xx10^(-4)):}` At t time the reaction quotient, `Q_c=([B][C])/[A]^2=((3xx10^(-4))(3xx10^(-4)))/(3xx10^(-4))^2-1.0` Thus, `(Q_c=1.0) gt (K_c=2xx10^(-3))` Here, value of `Q_c gt K_c`, So the reaction will proceed in the DIRECTION of reactant (reverse reaction). The reactant converted into reactant till`Q=2xx10^(-3)`. |

What is the minimum volume of water required to dissolve 1 g of calcium sulphate at 298 K ? (For calcium sulphate , K_(sp)=9.1xx10^(-6) ) |
|
Answer» Solution :Suppose solubility in water of `CaSO_4` is S mol `L^(-1)` `{:(CaSO_(4(s)) hArr, Ca_((aq))^(2+)+ , SO_(4(aq))^(2-)),(S, S M, S M):}` `therefore K_(SP)(CaSO_4)=[Ca^(2+)][SO_4^(2-)]=(S)(S)=S^2` `therefore S=sqrt(K_(sp))` `=sqrt(9.1xx10^(-6))=3.0167xx10^(-3) "mol L"^(-1)` `therefore "mol L"^(-1) = "mol"/L = "weight in gm"/"molecular X VOLUME in litre"` `therefore 3.0167xx10^(-3) = "1 G"/("136 g mol"^(-1) xx "volume")` molecular mass of `CaSO_4` =40+32+64=136 g `mol^(-1)` `therefore` Volume =`1/(3.0167xx136xx10^(-3))=1000/(3.0167xx136)` =2.4374 L =2437.4 mL 1 g `CaSO_4` soluble in minimum 2437.4 mL solution. |

What is entropy ? Explain its spontaneity. |
|
Answer» Solution :Entropy is the MEASUREMENT of randomness. Entropy of solid is less whereas in gaseous STATE entropy in maximum. Whenever heat is ADDED to the system, it increases molecular motions causing increased randomness in the system. Heat also depends on the temperature at which heat is added to the system. A system at higher temperature has greater randomness in it than one at lower temperature. Thus, temperature is the measure of average CHAOTIC .motion of particles in the system. Heat added to a system at lower temperature causes greater randomness than when the same quantity of heat is added to it at higher temperature. This suggests that the entropy change is inversely proportional to the temperature. `DeltaS= (q_("rev"))/( T)` `q_("rev")=` The heat gain or loss inversely by the system The total entropy change for the system and surroundings of a spontaneous process is given by `DeltaS_("total") = DeltaS_("sys") + DeltaS_("surr") gt 0` For spontaneous process `DeltaS= +ve` Entropy is a state property, we can calculate the change in entropy of a reversible process by : `DeltaS_("sys")= (q_("sys.,rev") )/( T)` We FIND that both for reversible and irreversible expansion for an ideal gas, under isothermal conditions, `DeltaU=0`, but `DeltaS_("total")=DeltaS_("sys")+ DeltaS_("surr")` is not zero for irreversible process. |
